Of Spring Abundance and Bovine Intelligence

Sweetpea Bowl

Sweetpea Forest

Black and White Mulberries

Chamomile

All in a row...

Heady cinnamon scented carnations

Spring Herb Garden

Pink Crinoline

White mulberries

The abundant blessings of Spring continue to amaze and astound me - just taking a short trip around the garden yields realization of blessing after blessing...the sweetpea bouquet in the dining room, the most fragrant pink crinoline rose in the garden, the sweetpea forest bordering the herb garden, the chamomile flowers in the herb garden, the berries on the white mulberry and black mulberry trees, the fragrant cinnamon scented bright hues of carnation flowers...

Daisy loves mulberries....

And spinach.....

Bovine evidence.....

And then, on the flip side......

You have a crazed mulberry eating gate opening cow who adores spinach and leaves huge footprints across the newly shooting children's garden recently planted by the children at our farm camp....

Stoechas lavender

About Me

My favourite times are spent growing and crafting with herbs, painting, looking after my menagerie. This is where I feel closer to God - in the beauty of His creation. I love the old-fashioned way of doing things and am moving towards self-sufficiency one step at a time...I also love teaching children, and training the Hillcrest Christian Academy marimba bands.
